I think it might be in place for you to check out these pages a little bit closer: http://www.php.net/manual/en/install-windows.php (Installation on Windows 9x/Me/NT/2000 systems) http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php (Chapter 3.

Windoze and Notepad do that. It can be avoided, but I don't know if I can explain it here in a short message (tip: Take a look at support.microsoft.com).
